I really like this one!A juvenile White Tailed Kite was fairly obliging about posing for me and even gave me a few stretches.

Thanks mate. That is the way I was leaning but was not sure.It's a juvenile European Goldfinch.
They have become very common here thanks to garden feeders. My sunflower seed feeder is attracting lots of finches. In the past few days lots of Goldfinches, Blue and Great Tits, a pair of Bullfinches, many Greenfinches and the odd Chaffinch, Blackcap and Robin. I've rigged up a fat feeder for the Longtailed Tits which has a double cage to keep out squirrels and larger birds. 6 or 7 of them fly in at once (Top, R5+400mm). The Blue and Great Tits perch for just a fraction of a second but the finches and the Longtailed hang around for ages. Bottom are a Great Tit and female Blackcap (R5+100-500mm).Thanks mate. That is the way I was leaning but was not sure.
Great shots Jeremy! Beautiful birds and thanks for posting !The morning we saw the grouse, it was -24 degrees F and we stood in the road for 1.5 hours waiting for it to do something, while it was in the tree. We were finally rewarded when it went down to the ground, but it was damn cold!!!

Very nice shots Jmeyer!
I am curious on what type of equipment you used for these ultrasharp pics ! As well if they were taken handheld (exposuretime?!) or using some kind of support? As well type of postprocessing (Lightroom, Photoshop, .....)?
